Synthetic RNA 'nanostars' create programmable compartments in bacteria
Researchers at the Department of Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology (CEB) have found a new way to organize molecules inside living cells, opening possibilities for more controlled and efficient biomanufacturing. The team has published a paper in Nature Communications demonstrating that engineered RNA molecules can self-assemble into membraneless organelles inside Escherichia coli (E. coli).
